Still trying to work this one out. The post office system in Richmond is kinda weird & convoluted.

It sort of disappeared into the labyrinthine red tape that is the Richmond, VA post office (you'd be amazed - I certainly was: it's entirely decentralized, and no branch communicates with any other branch). Supposedly if it remained unclaimed, the package should have been sent back to me on the 21st. I will try to get in touch with an actual human there again, but it's dicey. If worse comes to worse, I did insure the package, but claiming it could be difficult. I'll see if I can make any progress on this today.

The Orbit just arrived back on my doorstep! Hooray for the US Postal Service, holding tourboxes up for a full month!

At least we got it back, I suppose.

All right - Bellyheart said that he has an alternate address that's better for deliveries - I will ping him on that, and with any luck get this box back out and on the road!

Thanks man. That was some crazy Kafka-esque stuff with the red tape. I just got back from the Providence PO, and will PM you the new tracking number pronto!

Yeah, sorry about that. Sent it and returned to me while I was outta town. Must write better.

I'll give brief review.

I loved everything about the orbit. The only thing I would change is the gate on the fuzz, but that is probably the only way the effect can work. I'd like to hear it as just a clean effect. I was able to get some really awesome tones out of that thing with the blend mostly on the effect side. It's a real treat when you put a boost in front. I had a video recorded, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to upload it since it's on an old cell phone that no longer has service.

Man I wish I would have been in on this. I've been wanting to try an Orbit for so long.
